Steps to Make Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for baking.
- In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in vegetable oil and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gently fold in the diced apples into the wet mixture, ensuring they’re evenly distributed.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; avoid overmixing.
- Grease a baking sheet or pan and pour the batter evenly, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, chopped nuts, and extra cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture generously on top of your batter.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
